On the 28th of February 2019, Xiaomi launched two smartphones in India which include the Redmi Note 7 and the Redmi Note 7 Pro.

This move faced a lot of criticism from the Indian customers who were left dissatisfied.

In order to make up for the backlash, the company has launched the Redmi Note 7s in India that has the said 48 MP + 5 MP sensors as its Chinese variant. The price of the two variants makes it sit between the Note 7 and the beefed-up Note 7 Pro.

Xiaomi CEO Teases The Redmi Note 7 Pro With 6GB RAM, 128 GB Storage

Earlier this year, Xiaomi released the Redmi Note 7 with specs to kill for. A 48 MP camera with a Samsung ISOCELL sensor, 6 GB RAM, Snapdragon 660, It had everything that a smartphone connoisseur could desire. Needless to say, the device stirred up a lot of hype, with almost 100,000 units selling out in less than 11 minutes, as claimed by the Chinese electronics giant. Rumours are in the air that a newer edition of the same phone is on its way.

Rumoured Specs For Redmi Note 7 Pro

The device, which will be called the Redmi Note 7 Pro, is expected to launch with a Sony IMX586 sensor. And today, the company CEO dropped another hint online. When Lu Weibing was asking Redmi’s fans questions regarding their expectations from the Redmi Note 7 Pro, one fan had a rather far-fetched suggestion. “Drop the version with 3GB RAM and 32 GB Internal storage, and just release the 6GB+64GB or 6GB+128GB one.” This sounded like quite a big speculation. But the same reply was later reposted by the Xiaomi CEO, Lei Jun. This suggests that Redmi is actually looking towards such a variant on the Redmi Note 7 Pro.

If we put together the rumours, the Redmi Note 7 Pro will probably resemble the Note 7 in a variety of ways. It is expected to retain the same 6.4 inch screen with a similar notch. It will have the same 4000 mAh battery with Quick Charge 4. One of the more exciting things to look forward to is the introduction of a Snapdragon 675 instead of the Snapdragon 660. If this happens, the Redmi Note 7 Pro will be the cheapest phone in the segment to provide this chipset.

Redmi Note 7 Survives After Being Used As Skates And Thrown Down From Stairs
Xiaomi’s sub-brand, Redmi launched the Redmi Note 7 smartphone earlier this month in China. Due to its aggressive pricing the phone is attracting a lot of attention. A picture posted on weibo revealed a hidden feature of the Redmi Note 7. Two fresh videos shared by the company on a Chinese social media platform testify that the smartphone is not only loaded with features but it is also very durable.

Redmi Note 7 Thrown Around and Used As Skates

In the first video, a user attaches castor wheels to the rear of the Redmi Note 7 with the help of high strength tape and then rides the makeshift skates. Surprisingly, the device not only survives this abuse, its display seems to work perfectly fine that too without any noticeable scratches.

The second video again torments the Redmi Note 7 but in a completely different manner. A unit of the Redmi Note 7 is placed in a bin which is sealed from top and then rolled down the staircase. This video is an ideal demonstration of how a smartphone would get through in an accidental staircase drop. Like the first video, the Redmi Note 7 mainly stays unharmed without any noticeable damage.

Although an actual device would seldom face such an abuse, the videos certainly reflect the build quality and durability of the Redmi Note 7.

Redmi Note 7 Sold Out In Minutes

The massively popular Redmi Note series saw another phone being added to the lineup recently. The Redmi Note 7 is a budget phone that was launched with a massive 48 Megapixel camera. The company had their first flash sale today and like other Redmi Note phones, it sold out in just a few minutes!

The company in fact sold 100,000 devices in just 8 minutes 36 seconds. This was reported by a senior Xiaomi executive on a popular Chinese social media platform. The company also said that they wish to sell 1 million Redmi Note 7s by the end of January.

Features And Specifications

The phone features mostly budget smartphone specifications but the main attraction is the 48 MP main camera along with a 5 MP, f/2.4, depth sensor lens. The camera also 1080p at 30/60 and 120fps. It features a Snapdragon 660 chipset along with an Adreno 512 GPU. The phone’s screen is a 6.3 inch IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen. It is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5. Another great feature is that the phone’s memory is expandable. It supports microSD card up to 256 GB which takes up the SIM slot 2.

The Redmi Note 7 comes in different options. This includes a 64 GB storage, 4 or 6 GB RAM variant as well as a 32 GB storage 3 GB RAM variant. While the product hasn’t come to India yet, we are expecting it to drop sometime in February but for now, the Chinese price for the phone is set to CNY999 for the cheapest option.

Downside Of Flash Sales

Flash sales allow a company to have limited stock and clear stocks easily and swiftly. Inventory management and storage makes a large part of the cost incurred by phone manufacturers and flash sales help in negating that. However, flash sales have a downside as well. Many have criticised flash sales because it creates a market for bootlegging and grey marketing. Many of these high demand products are bought in bulk by sellers during these flash sales and sold on different websites on a higher mark- up. This has been a growing trend at the moment and is especially prevalent with Xiaomi’s phones. We sincerely hope that the companies do their best to stop this from happening and keeping a constant check on the online websites to flag them and ban the users from further selling or purchasing of goods.

Redmi Note 7 Has A Hidden Feature That The Company Is Not Even Promoting
Xiaomi has turned Redmi, its most popular lineup, into sub-brand. On 10 January 2019, Redmi launched its first smartphone called the Redmi Note 7. It is a successor to the highly popular Redmi Note 6 Pro. Albeit Xiaomi devices are made with budget focused consumers in mind, the devices have praiseworthy build quality. Same is the case with the Note 7 Pro, even though it is aggressively priced, the smartphone has a laudable feature that the company is not even promoting. A teardown of the device suggests that the device is well worthy of waterproof certification.

Watertight Seals and Membranes

An up-close image of the innards of the newly launched Redmi Note 7 was shared on Chinese social media site, Weibo which reveals intriguing findings. The images of the dis-assembled smartphone exhibit that it has rubber seals around several components that indeed make it watertight. Blue and Violet colored seals can be easily spotted around the camera modules. 3.5 mm audio jack and even the hybrid SIM card slot. In addition to the watertight seals, the loudspeaker is also protected with a watertight membrane.

Although, it is unclear why is Redmi not boasting about this noteworthy feature on the Redmi Note 7. It is possible that to keep the prices down, Redmi did not opt for any waterproof certification on the device. All in all, it is a great feature that other smartphone manufacturers must definitely take a note of.
